Frequently asked questions
How do you score cornhole?
A bag in the hole is 3 points, a bag on the board is 1. Each round, only the difference scores: if your team gets 5 and the other team 3, you score 2 and they score 0 (cancellation scoring).
What do you play to?
21. Most casual games stop the moment a team reaches 21 or more; some play “exactly 21” with a bust back to 15 or 11. This keeper uses first to 21.
How many bags per round?
Four per player (eight per round in singles). The keeper limits each team to four bags.
